Do you have a unique way of using Drupal? Can you offer helpful tips about Drupal or even have creative solutions to those nagging problems associated with Drupal? Then we would like to offer you a free platform on which to share your voice.

We are looking for people who would like to be featured on the Blue Drop Awards' website discussing the issues and topics surrounding the Drupal platform.

Are you more into doing than telling? Create a video or podcast that offers helpful tips or information relevant to the Drupal community.

Although the Blue Drop Awards are still a few months away, preparation has already begun. However, this isn’t a one-man show; we need your help. There are many ways to get involved such as volunteering, becoming a sponsor, posting to your social media networks and more.

In case you were not aware, in 2012, a group of volunteers set out to create an annual program that aims to increase the awareness of Drupal and it’s capabilities. Now in it’s fourth year, this community-nominated, publicly-voted event recognizes the contributions of individuals, companies, and projects.

As we’re coming to the end of another year, the Blue Drop Awards has set their "sites" on 2015. We’re extremely excited about the direction of the project but we believe, with your help, the Blue Drop Awards can be bigger and better.

This past year we’ve received nearly 60,000 visitors to the Blue Drop Awards website which represents a 28% increase over 2013 and a 46% increase over 2012. For the coming year, we’re aiming to receive over 100,000 visitors to the Blue Drop Awards.

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been working to determine the best possible sponsorship

Once again, DrupalCon has come and gone. We met a lot of great people and even some of the nominees and developers who worked on the sites. Kudos to you all!

Now, don’t be thinking that you can just forget about us. The nomination year for the 2015 Blue Drop Awards has just started, and you’ll want to keep an eye out for all the wonderful sites that come out this next year before March 1, 2015.

Also, if any of you would like to volunteer for next year’s Blue Drop Awards, we are definitely accepting help, even now.

The votes have been tallied for the third annual Blue Drop Awards and the team of volunteers is proud to announce 2014 winners. With over 200 website nominations, the community has voted and selected innovative, progressive and dynamic sites.

“We appreciate all the support from the Drupal Community,” said Ben Finklea, CEO, Volacci. “The Blue Drop Awards were created to promote Drupal to the greater technology community and to recognize innovative, next-generation websites and the companies that built them.”
